A conservatory program for grades 6–12, Starbright trains serious creatives to perform, produce, and build real portfolios—guided by working industry mentors in film, fashion, dance, music, and acting. Whether your child needs elite arts training, a flexible accredited homeschool option, or both, our hybrid model adapts—combining Cognia-accredited academics with in-person conservatory tracks that prepare students for college and creative careers.
Starbright is first and foremost a professional-track arts conservatory, not a conventional school. Working industry professionals lead every class and rehearsal, training students to real-world standards. As the official youth affiliate of 340 Entertainment Studios, we immerse our young artists in an industry environment from day one – your teen isn’t just taking lessons, they’re preparing for a career.
Step into the spotlight with programs in dance, theater, and competitive cheerleading. Training is guided by industry professionals and champions, emphasizing technical skill and creative expression.
Dive into filmmaking and acting from script to screen. Students learn storytelling, directing, cinematography, editing and more in an environment that balances creativity with technical mastery. They even get to work on real film projects through our studio partnership.
From classical instrumental training to cutting-edge music production, our music program helps students compose, produce, and perform their own music. They gain experience in state-of-the-art recording studios and live performance, developing both artistry and technical skills.
Unleash your creativity in visual arts, graphic design, and fashion. Students learn to bring their visions to life – sketching, painting, digital art, photography, even fashion design and modeling – guided by experts who bridge traditional art and modern innovation.
Starbright serves students in grades 6–12 (ages approximately 11–18) through three flexible enrollment tracks: Arts-Only, Academics-Only, and the Full Program (both). Each is designed for creative students with unique educational needs.
No auditions are required. We welcome both experienced young artists and beginners with passion. Our conservatory instructors tailor training based on each student's skill level and goals.
Academics are delivered online. Arts training is offered in-person at our campus, with regional intensives and virtual options for remote students. Our hybrid model allows for scheduling flexibility and geographic access.
Through our partnership with 340 Entertainment Studios, students gain hands-on experience with industry professionals. Many graduate with film credits, recordings, performances, and networking connections that open doors in the creative industries.
